Athletics department releases updated Mocs license plate

It’s a new year! Out with old and in with the new as the UTC Athletics Department introduces an updated license plate for Tennessee residents.

The new plate, featuring the power “C” logo, is available for purchase at any county clerk’s office.

“This is a project that has been in the works for a while and I am excited that the new plate is available to our fans and alumni. It is important for us to incorporate our updated marks in all of our branding initiatives. This will certainly help give us more visibility,” Rick Hart, Director of Athletics, said.

The blue and gold plate includes the Mocs’ Power “C” logo and the “Chattanooga” wordmark. It replaces the former plate that featured the now-retired Scrappy logo.

This plate is available to Tennessee residents who are registering a private passenger motor vehicle. The total annual fee for the new Mocs plate is $56.50. The included specialty plate fee of $35 is divided between the Tennessee Arts Commission (80%) and the Highway Fund (20%). The plate can also be personalized with five characters available for an additional $35.

“I would like to thank the Tennessee Taxpayer & Vehicle Services Division for their help in updating our plate. I have already seen a number of them on cars around Chattanooga and I hope to get mine soon,” Hart said.
